I partly agree, but that's not the only reason. Dylan is a non-conformist, he likes to think for himself. Like Brenda in fact. It's logical that two characters like these would wonder if university is for them. It would have been good for the writers to take advantage of this season to develop Dylan's vocation as a writer (something that has never been done).

I have vague recollections in the 90s, of registering for my classes in a similar fashion, except the tables were set up inside the community college, no administration office either.

[@robinorlowski2449]

this was in fall of 1993. I don't believe that they had online registration yet. I have to admit, I'd be reluctant to enroll/attend if I had to do that every semester. Thank goodness somebody developed online registration.

[@sailorsister211]

Brenda had so much patience with Darla, who literally acted like she owned their dorm. What is the point of paying for dorm if u are literally sleeping in the hallway bc her roommate sees it as her own personal hotel. My friend had the same problem with Brenda. At first, when her roommate wants private time with her bf, she was cool with it. However, after first couple times that when she put her footdown and told them to get a hotel. She would ignore the sock and just go in bc it's her room, too. Her roommate ended up dropping out.

[@SnowyNightFlyer]

“Tell ‘em you’re a sophomore.” No problem, Steve looks old enough to be a graduate student.

[@brettteply1207]

Brenda should have checked into a hotel that night

[@robinorlowski2449]

She probably did not have a lot of her very own money. And her parents if paying for the college would have noticed the big expense. I am curious though how Brenda leaves the dorm with so little. Her mom and family members had to help her move in. Apparently she just left the stuff there with Darla. If their friendship ended, it would be difficult to get it back.

Last time on Beverly Hills, 90210. Brenda had decided to head back to Minnesota and enroll in the University of Minnesota. But from the start, she felt it was as cold as the state’s winter weather.

Never realized how short Brandon is. No wonder he was never in films on the big screen

[@oliviamadison6440]

Tom cruise is shorter than him and he’s big time film star .. some actors like movies and others like being on tv

[@NaticzkaKaminskaHenryDolphin]

First - he was in films on a big screen, secondly, in the case of Jason, the height didn't matter because he was very hot and beautiful. As a previous commenter wrote, look at Tom Cruise - he is even shorter, yet he's still the biggest movie star, and Cruise was not as handsome as Jason. Just look at Jason's face, his big blue eyes, regular face lines. What's more, he had fabulous hair when it was longer, shorter haircut took away from his hotness a little, but he was hot as hell in general. You sure know this, watch him during seasons 1, 2, 3. Jason was in many movies, including big ones like Tombstone in 1993. But he punched Weinstein in defense of a friend during one party in the '90s, as he told in one interview, and that probably set back his career, because Weinstein ruled Hollywood back then. At least Jason was a guy with integrity. Plus, in Hollywood, you have to have all the luck in the world - you can be very talented and handsome, but if you are unlucky, that's it, and the competition is crazy. Finally, Jason had a terrible car accident back in 2002, so exactly at the time when he was ready to finally transition from Beverly Hills to more serious projects for good, he was just 32 back then, so he was still young. The accident happened during a practice run at the Kentucky Speedway when his Indy Pro Series car crashed into a wall at nearly 180 miles per hour - yes, Jason was in a real, pro car racing sport. He was almost killed and sustained many awful injuries to his face and entire body, he had many surgeries, and it's a miracle that it is not visible today at all. But it still influenced his career negatively because his face was changed a little bit, and what's more important, he admitted years after, that as a result of this accident, he had many health issues and suffered from chronic pain, which naturally limits your acting job because body is the main tool in acting, and he didn't have a healthy body for a long time after this accident. So see- there were many factors why Jason didn't become, like the biggest movie star, despite having all the factors to be: looks, talent, and early success with Beverly Hills. He was just unlucky, maybe he stayed in Beverly Hills too long but with these things you never know, he punched Weinstein, and he had this awful accident.

Hilarious how all the registrars have desk tops outside, yet there does not seem to be any online registration for the students. I would have mailed it in or walked like Dylan. Fortunately where I live there was in person and online registration.

[@suzannadannaTARDIS]

This reminds me of when I went to enroll in college in August 1984. My college had over 20,000 students and we all waited in LONG lines with a huge sheet of paper that had all the courses that semester printed on it tiny. When you got to the front of the line, you told the person the class and section you wanted and they looked through their box of cards. If there was a card left for that Course # and that section, you got it. If not, sorry - you can't take that class. Then after spending a few hours standing in those crazy lines, you stood in another LONG line to hand your cards in to one of the registrar's employees, who input your student ID (social security number back then!) and the courses you wanted and gave you a printed course summary and bill. Then down to the Bursar's office to pay said bill or sign a promissary note. After the first semester, it got a LOT easier. Depending on the amount of credits you had, you could register earlier in the week.
